March Madness has officially begun—and this is the snack you need to be serving.

Soft pretzels are a concession stand favorite, but we always assumed they were too difficult to make at home. Our solution? Creating a recipe that doesn't involve lye, goggles, or any complicated techniques, so you can serve soft pretzels every time your team plays.

These are also great if your bracket isn't looking too hot (I'm speaking from experience...), because you can cheer yourself up with a warm, chewy pretzel. Plus, everyone can take part in making them.

Trust us when we say these are truly the best—we tested multiple different variations to come up with a go-to recipe. While some pretzels are made with water, and others brown sugar, these ones use a mixture of whole milk and honey. Grab the recipe on RealSimple.com!
